Start your day off right with polished Northwest comfort food at Madrona’s newest eatery.

In this edition of Food Porn, we feature Restaurant Bea, a fresh addition to Seattle’s Madrona neighborhood. This restaurant offers a menu featuring polished Northwest comfort food in a cozy space where people feel welcome and comfortable.

Long-time friends Chef Tom Black and front-of-house partner Kate Perry opened Restaurant Bea on March 30th, offering seasonal comfort food in a casual dining atmosphere. Beginning May 19th, brunch service is offered on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am-3pm.

Start brunch with a bubbly Mimosa or an extra spicy Bloody Mary cocktail. For something simple, yet artfully prepared, the Breakfast Basket features an assortment of scones, biscuits, pastries, and house-churned butter.

The Brioche French Toast served with a warm vermont maple syrup is moist and just the right amount of sweetness. The Rabbit Pot Pie with a flaky, buttery crust and a stew of tender rabbit meat, potatoes, and vegetables is hearty and unique. Clams and Bread feature clams in a wine butter broth with chorizo and house-baked bread. The bread is lightly grilled — crunchy on the outside, soft and fluffy on the inside, and perfect for dipping. The savory Smoked Salmon and Chevre Frittata is served with a side of breakfast potatoes.

Restaurant Bea is open Tuesday – Saturday from 5-11pm for dinner with happy hour in the bar from 5-6pm. Their dinner menu features interesting items, including veal and chuck bacon-wrapped Meatloaf, Rabbit Spaetzle, and truffled Tater Tots with a green goddess dip. 

They offer Chef’s Table, a five-course menu personally served by Chef Tom at a private table located in the heart of the kitchen that accommodates 2-4 people for $55. Please email to make a reservation for this exciting experience food lovers will be sure to enjoy. Guests looking for a private dining experience for a slightly larger group (8-18) will love the intimate Little Bea, a separate space where Chef Tom prepares a three-course prix-fixe menu for guests also at $55 per person.

The staff are friendly, the atmosphere is cozy, and the food is delicious. Come to the quaint Madrona neighborhood to enjoy a casual meal that highlights seasonal ingredients in a creative, refreshing way.
